Parking: None, chinatown will be impossible street/meter parking…read more Interior: None, this is a order/pick up window. If the shop is open you will see a line. Wait Time: 10min on a weekend afternoon. I got lucky and saw it was open beginning of this year before crowds found out. Their hours are not accurate so just up to chance. Items Order: 9/10 Egg Tart $3.75 - larger than average egg tart. It comes piping hot and fresh. the shell is very buttery but holds well. custard is very hongkong style (eggy/milky vs the custardy Portuguese version). Sweetness level is about 50% so not that sweet. CASH ONLY

I feel like there's been a bit of shrinkflation but don't mind it because some things might've been too big to begin with hehe My favorites are still the kouign amann and chocolate banana almond croissant.

You can also order ahead online if you want to minimize wait time. Just make sure to bring cash since they're cash-only. Food: The flaky crust instantly brought back childhood memories. We tried the red bean and black sesame flavors, and both were excellent. The seaweed paired beautifully with the red bean, adding a subtle umami depth that balanced the sweetness perfectly. The black sesame flavor tasted rich, nutty, and authentic; true to its name without tasting overly processed or filled with unnecessary additives.

Pineapple King is one of my top eats during our San Francisco trip. I've had bolo pineapple buns…read morecountless times in LA and even in Hong Kong, but never quite like this. It was absolutely heavenly. The standout was the bolo bun with guava butter. Imagine guava jam and butter had a delicious baby and being tucked inside a warm, soft pineapple bun and that's exactly what it tasted like. We also tried the classic butter bun, which was excellent, but the guava version was the winner for us. For something savory, we ordered the salted egg yolk and BBQ pork bun, and it was delicious. The combination of sweet, salty, and savory flavors worked really well together. We also tried the pandan bun, which was fine, but it didn't quite stand out compared to the other flavors. I wish we had time to come back and sample more of the menu. I had my eye on the matcha and red bean varieties and would have loved to try them. I also ordered a Hong Kong milk tea and it was rich and strong. They even serve it with a mini warm bolo bun on top of the cup, which is both adorable and delicious. Pineapple King is the kind of place I would happily travel back to San Francisco for. Now if they could just open a location in LA my life would be complete!

Tartine pastries are overall very delicious and fresh. I actually love the oat porridge loaf the most, and try to get it every time I'm in the neighborhood.... so moist and chewy yum. On this particular morning, I picked up the fig ricotta pastry, which was very very good. we also got a little gems salad which was pretty flavorful with a lot of crispy crunchies in it. We also really like the Tartine Manufactory that's on the other side of the neighborhood that has more sit down seating.

With a crispy undercarriage and still somehow perfectly chewy melty, it had a great balance . I also got a chocolate chip cookie which was massive for the price, chewy and not too sweet. The service was quick but the out door seating was full today, which reflects the popularity of this quaint and highly popular location. Luckily it's a quick walk to the park and even through the extra distance, the pizza was still crispy and delicious.

I've always wanted to try this place since I see a line every time I walked by. There's a lot of foot and car traffic. It's definitely a busy area so expect to park in one of the nearby residential areas or be extremely and walk/bike/bus here! Upon stepping into the tiny shop, I was enveloped in the sweet smell of chocolate chip cookies. It was tempting to put that in my bag, but I stuck with my game plan. They do self serve for all the baked goods and drinks except the pizza and focaccia. You tell the cashier what you grabbed. There's self serve complimentary water on the side too. Got a pecan swirl, one of each square focaccia flavors, and a half pizza (hot). The pizza flavor of the day was triple mushroom with sesame ginger garlic vinaigrette and mozzarella. It was 10/10 delicious!! Do note that they don't heat up the focaccia. Personally, after tasting everything, I'd say the pizza is more worth it than the focaccia "pizzas". The pecan roll was quite addicting too. You can also skip the line if you want to order online on their website and schedule a pick up time, but my gift card didn't work so I just waited in line.

I've tried a variety of items, including the butter mochi muffin and their flavored twice baked croissants, but my favorites are the banana bostock and the mushroom tart. I also appreciate that they serve drinks from Paper Son. I've been getting the Guava Pillow, which is a tonic espresso topped with guava foam, it's such a great caffeine option if you're not in the mood for something milky. The staff are all very friendly, which makes the experience even better. The location itself is a bit awkward in my opinion, as it's on a busy street, but they do offer a few parking spots right in front as well as some outdoor seating. Overall, I highly recommend this bakery over others in the neighborhood!
